11th Blastia: Trouble in the swamp.

[famed_mage]

*Rita was exploring the swamp that the Dimentional Gate has gave them access. She was trying to find new ingrediants for her experiments, and trying to find something to defeat Revya and Dr. BT. She was doing this, but now she was getting chased by a horde of Serpents. Her magic seems to be working, but her chanting time doesn't let her get off more then one spell at once, and she doesn't have enough charge to activate her overlimit*

Crapcrapcrapcrapcrap!

*Shall someone save her?*

Learning alone can be good sometimes, but you never know when you may miss something that someone else may notice!

So, where to first?

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Well, I wanted to take notes on the gases released in these swamps. So we need to find a gas pocket.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Alright!

*Beryl peers into the murky waters for a few moments and then scans the area, looking for something that looked.. gassy*

I think I see some green gas coming out of something over there.

*She says pointing to a rather nasty looking marsh a little ways away*

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Then lets go there.

*She grabs Raspberyl, and uses her levitate skill to fly over the muck to the gas pocket. When they get there, Rita takes out a type of device, and starts taking readings*

*Sven though she doesn't need to, Beryl flaps her wings a bit as she flies*

That's a pretty useful technique!

*She looks into the muck and then at the little device*

So what does this thing do?

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Yes, it took me awhile to learn it, but it makes getting around so much easier.

This thing measure the different type of gases in the general area, and the amounts they are in.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Woah, really? That's cool, I'm sure you can find all sorts of awesome gasses with this. Maybe you'll even discover a new kind of gas, that would get you in a science book for sure, heh.

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Well, I have never been into getting into science books. Everything that gets published I already discovered myself months ago.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Woah, That's beyond cool! I've never even done anything like that. I wish there were more scientists like you around, all we have in the Netherworld are the crazy ones, heh.

*As she says this she has a sly little smile, obviously thinking of Mao at the moment*

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Yeah, and I hate made scientist. They give us regular ones a bad name. If one mad scientist tries to take over the world, all of the rest of us are under fire as well.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Oh, well I think they have their place in the world too. Some mad scientists are really good people, even if they don't want to admit it, I just think they're mostly confused and very awkward.

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

... Are you talking about Mao?

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

No I...

*she stops for a few moments and then sighs*

Yeah.. I guess I'm sort of biased aren't I? heh.

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Yeah you are, but that's ok I guess. You can't talk down about a close friend of yours. For example, There's an old man in my group back are home who is a pervert. While I'd call him a pervert,and punch him, and blast him for magic, I would still defend him if someone else attacked him or called him an evil person.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Yeah.. funny how things like that work...

As a delinquent, understanding love and friendship are top priorities, but sometimes, I think that some of those, no one will ever completely understand.

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Well, I at first did not understand why someone would want that myself, but a friend of my showed my how loney I really was without it...

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Yeah, I guess you really don't need to completely understand it, so long as you know you need it, and know how to use it. I can't imagine how someone who doesn't have any friends could feel.

This friend, was it the same one you were talking about back at the circus?

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

I knew someone like that. He latched himself to Yuri, and was always trying to kill him, to prove himself. In the end, he went insane and died. I thought, that that could have been me, if I didn't meet with Estelle and the others.

Yeah, that was Estelle.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

That must be terrible. I can understand wanting to prove yourself to someone, but that's just going too far...

*She changes the subject a bit, not wanting to get depressed over hearing about something like that.*

Heh, it seems like she had quite a bit of influence on you.. Oh! That reminds me, someone told me that they had seen someone named Estelle here when trick or treat was going on, was it the same one that you knew?

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

*hearing about that Estelle really upsets her*

Yeah... that was her... I'd rather not talk about it...

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Oh crap! It must not have gone over well at all..

O-Oh, I'm sorry, I shouldn't have brought that up. Heh, look at me, trying to pry into people's business like some sort of honor student I must be off my game today!

*She says this simply trying to change the subject now*

S-so, find any interesting gasses with that thing yet?

*She laughs sort of nervously after that*

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

*She looks at Raspberyl*

Don't worry about it, I just found out that she is seeing someone else... another me...

Well, nothing yet...but it takes a little time.

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

O-Oh, that.. that would be sort of awkward...

So, that means that there could be a Mao out there that's dating... me?! My head hurts!

[famed-mage.livejournal.com]

Awkward is just the start of it...

*Her meter starts beeping*

Oh, this can't be good...

[darkmastern.livejournal.com]

Yeah I mean..

*Beryl quickly turns towards the machine*

What is it?
